Swapped to the dynamic indicators, which are a major improvement over stock. Very happy with this cheap & easy modification! Looks way more modern (y)

Noticed some oil in the intake system, which is usually a sign of a bad PCV valve/system. So first things first, replace the PCV valve

Performed DSG oil & filter change. Unfortunately, the previous owner skipped the 120k km mark (I never understand why people skimp over necessary maintenance).

This was the first "big" jobbo on the Cupra. Also cleaned everything I encountered (sand/dust) during this job

Went for a kit from Febi (6 liter oil, filter + gasket, plug and crush washers)

Nice build. Please watch out with the knockoff vcds cables it contains virus software. Also u get warnings like out off range when coding its not a real hex-v2 some times it wil messup your coding on the mqb cars. Keep up the good work.
